Cara C. Putman, award-winning, bestselling author of over 40 titles, is an extrovert by nature. When the pandemic hit in 2020, she began missing in-person events and meeting up with her writer friends. She became more active on social media and even did some lives, but felt there was still something missing. That's when her podcast, "Book Talk with Cara", was born. With around 100 episodes, the podcast can be found on all of the major platforms including Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. In each episode, Putman invites one of her author friends to talk about their books, where they get their ideas, writing process, and more. She'll sometimes host genre specific panels as well. The podcast has been a great way for Putman to introduce writers to readers, and to give readers a "peek behind the curtain" of being a fiction writer.
